Having an impossible time losing a few pounds? Hate going to the gym and comparing yourself to everyone around you—only to go home feeling defeated and finding comfort in the arms of Ben & Jerry?

We're going to incorporate your biceps, your triceps, the back of your arms. No more waving in the wind with the flab, no more of that. We're going to incorporate your chest, a little bit of your back, and we're also going to incorporate your core, 'cause it's very important in any part of your workout. You want to make sure that you're stabilizing your core muscles, which are your abs, your lower back and your whole midsection. Okay, so I'm Madison Chase and my background is basically in dance and fitness, and I've worked with numerous celebrities and athletes and Karen Voight and Gunnar Peterson.
